It should be D. It is said that nuclear force acts in the fermi range i.e 10^(-15) m. Nuclear force > Electrical force> Gravitational force So now guess your answer :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ohh :P I already gave the answer :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This is the strength of the forces in descending order: Nuclear force > Electrical force> Gravitational force

Oh alright, that made it easier to choose the answer. Thanks for explaining it.
